 (c) rooting said proliferated shoots to obtain rooted plantlets. 
 
     
     
       12. The method of  claim 1 , further comprising growing plants from said rooted plantlets. 
     
     
       13. A method of introducing a desired trait into a tomato variety comprising:
 (a) crossing a plant of variety CHI 14-2079, a sample of seed of said variety having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-11271, with a second tomato plant that comprises a desired trait to produce F1 progeny; 
 (b) selecting an F1 progeny that comprises the desired trait; 
 (c) crossing the selected F1progeny with a plant of variety CHI 14-2079 to produce backcross progeny; 
 (d) selecting backcross progeny comprising the desired trait and the physiological and morphological characteristic of tomato line CHI 14-2079 ; and 
 (e) repeating steps (c) and (d) three or more times in succession to produce selected fourth or higher backcross progeny that comprise the desired trait. 
 
     
     
       14. A tomato plant produced by the method of  claim 13 . 
     
     
       15. A method of producing a plant comprising an added desired trait, the method comprising introducing a transgene conferring the desired trait into a plant of tomato variety CHI 14-2079, a sample of seed of said variety having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-11271. 
     
     
       16. A method of determining the genotype of the plant of  claim 1  comprising obtaining a sample of nucleic acids from said plant and detecting in said nucleic acids a plurality of polymorphisms. 
     
     
       17. The method of  claim 16 , further comprising the step of storing the results of detecting the plurality of polymorphisms on a computer readable medium. 
     
     
       18. A method for producing a seed of a variety derived from variety CHI 14-2079 comprising the steps of:
 (a) crossing a tomato plant of variety CHI 14-2079 with a second tomato plant, a sample of seed of said variety having been deposited under ATCC Accession Number PTA-11271; and 
 (b) allowing seed of a variety CHI 14-2079 derived tomato plant to form. 
 
     
     
       19. The method of  claim 18 , further comprising the steps of:
